Can Texas (women) remain atop the SEC standings as the regular season culminates?
And then there were two teams fighting for the SEC’s pinnacle: Texas and South Carolina.
Texas completed its challenge of defeating four consecutive SEC foes to claim the SEC’s top spot, holding a half-game lead against reigning national champion South Carolina at No. 2. LSU sits at No. 3 while Kentucky rounds out the league’s top four, coming off a week where the Longhorns, Gamecocks and Tigers were in a three-way tie for the top spot.
But beyond the league’s top four vying to notch double-byes in the SEC tournament starting in less than two weeks, the battle for teams sitting between fifth through ninth in league play is fierce. Those five teams — Alabama, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Vanderbilt and Tennessee — are separated by two games or less. Get your popcorn ready for an action-packed race to the end of the season in the conference.
